DU-1181N
1-needle, Top and Bottom-feed, Lockstitch Machine with Double-capacity Hook
Product features
With its powerful top and bottom feed mechanism, the machine smoothly feeds a difficult-to-feed material or a multi-layered part of material without pitch errors, achieving consistent seam quality.
Higher lift of the presser foot
The lift of the presser foot, by the knee lifter, is as high as 15 mm so as to support processes which require a higher lift of the presser foot, such as piping and tape-attaching.
The maximum stitch length is 9 mm
With its stitch length being as large as 9 mm, the machine is applicable to a broader range of sewing processes.
The double-capacity hook is provided as standard
The machine comes with a horizontal-axis double-capacity hook, not only to decrease the frequency of bobbin thread changing, but also to enable sewing work with increased efficiency.
Basic performance
Automatic lubricating mechanism
A pump-unit type automatic lubricating mechanism dramatically improves maintainability. The oil amount in the face plate and hook is adjustable.
The top feed mechanism employs a grease tank and oil wick lubrication mechanism.
The machine achieves low-vibration and low-noise
The machine head is designed to achieve optimum balance, thereby reducing vibration and noise. The machine affords the operator a comfortable working environment.
Excellent operability
